Gold continues to dominate trending topics in Jordan over the past hours, following a significant surge in its prices in the local market. This sharp rise has driven many citizens to invest and save in the precious metal, viewing it as a safe haven amid ongoing economic fluctuations.

On Monday, gold prices recorded a new increase of 40 piasters per gram of 21-karat gold, according to the daily pricing issued by the General Syndicate of Owners of Jewelry and Gold Shops.

Based on the latest pricing, the 21-karat gold gram reached 81.70 dinars for sale and 78.30 dinars for purchase at jewelry stores, while the prices for 24-, 18-, and 14-karat gold stood at 93.60, 72.40, and 55.00 dinars, respectively.

This rise comes amid global geopolitical tensions and fluctuating U.S. dollar rates, making gold a preferred choice for saving and investment among Jordanians — especially with expectations that its upward trend may continue in the coming period.
